SHOULD I PLAY DEVIL SLAYER RAKSASI? Totally play this. Devil Slayer Raksasi takes the top-down roguelite approach of The Binding of Isaac and layers on a dark fantasy vibe that would be at home in a FromSoft game. This tough but addictive combination left me wanting to keep playing even after I’d wrapped up the demo. Thankfully it has multiple characters to try!

Hello, TapTap fans! This is my first article here, and I want to start with a game that was a wonderful experience for me when it comes to gaming on smartphones. I'm referring to Bendy and the Ink Machine, a 2018 survival horror game that I discovered earlier this year. Bendy and the Ink Machine, created by the small independent studio Joey Drew Studios, follows the adventure of Henry Stein, a retired animator who, after receiving an invitation from his former boss, returns to his old animation studio. There, he will uncover a terrifying nightmare of

Horror fans are still eagerly awaiting the upcoming remake of Silent Hill 2, but Konami made a surprise reveal today that makes the wait just a little less painful. During today's State of Play stream, Sony played a trailer for Silent Hill: The Short Message, a new free Silent Hill game that will launch of PlayStation 5 later today. Konami describes The Short Message as a "short-form" Silent Hill title that's meant to be the first of a wave of new Silent Hill games to help revive the franchise. Apparently they're not counting

SHOULD I PLAY VAMPIRE SURVIVORS: EMERGENCY MEETING? If you’ve already sunk dozens or even hundreds of hours into Vampire Survivors, then you’ve probably already bought this add-on. But just in case you were wondering, yes, the new Vampire Survivors: Emergency Meeting DLC is excellent. It doesn’t seem like this game’s intense, mostly single-player action would be a great match with the social deduction stylings of

The Last of Us clickers and bloaters, nothing instills more fear than that horrible clicking sound or bloater yell, along with the spooky ambiance.

Towaga: Among Shadows is a casual but insanely fun action-adventure game with beautiful 2D visuals and smooth animation that explores a world of darkness from the perspective of a light-bringing warrior. After an hour of monster slaying, I’ve come to enjoy Towaga: Among Shadows’s simple shoot ‘em up gameplay and storyline. In Towaga: Among Shadows, I embarked on an adventure to save a stunning Aztec-themed world from evil monsters seeking to ravage everything in its sight. I had to battle against various creatures using abilities and a beam of light that I could redirect willingly with the swoosh and hold of a finger. I’ve found the story mode more enjoyable so far, despite only dabbling in the game’s survival mode, but I’ve yet to play multiplayer.

SHOULD I PLAY DUNGEONS 4? Play it, especially if you love real-time strategy games. Dungeons 4 offers an insanely fun real-time strategy experience that covers the basics that fans like myself have grown to love from games like Age of Empires 2 and Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne. Its campaign introduces a fresh perspective into the standard formula by making the player the villain instead of the classic hero. This game is all about being absolutely evil, and I loved every second of that wickedness. While ruling over demons and undead monsters does take some time and attention,

Scorn definitely has it down when it comes to horrific monster designs I mean look at that it looks like something that crawled straight Outta someone's butt😂

I'm here again to show you a collection of something drawn straight from Hell. These are fiends from the game Blade of God. MYTH Bear Tyrant The hulking bear raised by the overlord It is said to be rescued by the overlord in a war. Since then, the king has been with the bear for a long time. The bear had been trained to become a skilled warrior, who was invulnerable and accompanied the king everywhere. Can't go back to the forest after the overlord's death.

SHOULD I PLAY HELLBOY WEB OF WYRD? If you’re not a die-hard Hellboy fan, you should probably skip this one. Hellboy Web of Wyrd looks like a B.P.R.D. comic brought to life. It’s got spectacular visuals and excellent voice acting (including a lead performance from the late, great Lance Reddick), but it’s just not very fun to play. The sluggish combat and buggy gameplay sapped most of the fun out this game.

The Naked twins from outlast and also the ex security guard just look at them! Naked and scary and the other one will just rip you to shreds

For me I vote for Left 4 Dead. Because with all that hordes and different zombies like the tanker and witch it makes you overwhelmed when they chase you and sometimes can't even shoot because of the amount of Zombies. But still for me its the best

SHOULD I PLAY TITAN QUEST: ULTIMATE EDITION? If you’ve been searching for a microtransaction-free alternative to Diablo Immortal or are craving some old-school hack-and-slash action, Titan Quest: Ultimate Edition deserves a closer look. While this action-RPG definitely shows its age, it’s an addictive game that runs perfectly on mobile. I had a ton of fun fighting my way through hordes of monsters, picking up piles of loot, and building a character that was a perfect fit for my playstyle.

PLAY IT OR SKIP IT? Skip it unless you’re a superfan of anything inspired by H.P. Lovecraft or you’re dying for a Metroidvania. The Last Case of Benedict Fox follows a demon-possessed detective who has the ability to jump into the memories of the dead. Using these powers, he’s attempting to find out the dark truth behind what happened to his father, a man heavily involved in occult rituals. It’s a great setup, but the experience is quickly dragged down by clunky controls and frustrating level design.

Horrifying is an understatement to what you see in the Silent Hill franchise. The most outstandingly horrific creatures I’ve ever seen were in Silent Hill 2. You can find a lot of them in this picture.

SHOULD I PLAY WYTCHWOOD ON MOBILE? Definitely check it out if you haven’t already played it on other platforms. Wytchwood is a cozy crafting game with some seriously spooky vibes. I tested the game on iPhone and Android, and both versions ran perfectly. Moving around and navigating menus is a breeze, and the colorful, creepy visuals look absolutely stunning. It’s the perfect game to play on a dark, stormy night.

CORRUPTOR "A monster born from Mania, with a deformed body and no sanity. Mania is a mutation unique to humans that causes abnormal mental and physical changes in individuals. First discovered in DisCity in N.F. 84, its cause is still unknown. People infected with Mania will become slaves to extreme feelings and emotions, such as hysteria, paranoia, and insatiable appetites for sensual pleasures; at the same time, their physical strength will increase exponentially, and their physical appearance will change beyond recognition. Eventually, they will go deranged and turn into grotesque monsters that have no will of their own."

ULTRA RARE Gale-Begetting Heavenly Four, Tetra Sylphid The esper form of four wind fairy sisters who fly using the large wings sprouting from their heads. It is said that they possess the power to command a flurry of colossal tornadoes, and once they become enraged, there is no one capable of bringing the ensuing chaos under control. Roaring Thunderclap, Ramuh A wizened sage who wields lightning to a frightening degree. Though there are some black mages who can control lightning, Ramuh's breadth of skill and destructive power are far superior. His lightning is believed to be that which judges the corrupt, and those with guilt in their hearts fear him to no end.

SHOULD I PLAY DIMENSION HUNTER? Check this one out if you’re into roguelites and like bullet hell mechanics, but skip it if you’re not that into the genre. Dimension Hunter is a fun and fast-paced dungeon crawler that’s easy to pick up and play, but aside from its awesome pixel art, it doesn’t do anything that makes it stand out from the crowd. It might not be the most original game, but there are plenty of cool power-ups and weird monsters to fight, so die-hard roguelite fans should definitely give it a try.
